Chapter 376: Suddenly Gave Him The Creeps
“Xiang Nan’s apology.” Tong Yu scratched his disheveled hair. “What did you think I was talking about? Didn’t you say you have initiated the legal process?”
“Huh? Xiang Nan’s apology? Why would he apologize?” Huo Xiang was completely lost.
“You didn’t check Weibo last night, right?” asked Tong Yu in surprise.
“Nope. I slept early,” replied Huo Xiang.
Tong Yu finally realized why Huo Xiang was reacting the way that he was. So, he went ahead and explained it to him. “Xiang Nan confessed that your little sister instigated him to do this. She stole your song and gave it to him, which means that the mastermind trying to ruin your reputation online was none other than your little sister.”
He added after two seconds. “Don’t get confused. I’m talking about your foster sister, Lu Xia.”
Huo Xiang frowned instinctively. “Do you mean Lu Xia was the one who gave my track to Xiang Nan?”
“Uh huh.” Tong Yu leaned back into his chair. He crossed his legs and said, “Didn’t you sever ties with your foster sister? How did your song end up in her hands?”
“She didn’t steal my song,” said Huo Xiang after going quiet for a long time.
Although he had no love for his foster sister, it was not in his nature to malign her.
“How can that be? Go check out the number one post on Weibo. It contains a recording where Lu Xia has confessed to the theft,” said Tong Yu.
He a.s.sumed that Huo Xiang was trying to be nice to Lu Xia.
Huo Xiang frowned even harder. “Let me listen to it first.”
“Sure. Swing by the office later. We have to settle things with Xiang Nan,” said Tong Yu.
“Okay.”
Huo Xiang hung up the phone. He pulled out the chair and sat down in front of his computer before accessing Weibo.
He found the post that Tong Yu had been talking about.
After listening to the audio clip, Huo Xiang went into a complete shock.
Lu Xia was really the person who gave the new song to Xiang Nan.
But??? How did she come to possess the song if he had finished composing after her leaking it?
Huo Xiang suddenly got the creeps. He gingerly touched the gooseb.u.mps on his arm.
He shook his head and quickly went through Weibo to check Xiang Nan’s apology. His lips stretched into a cold smirk.
If Xiang Nan had candidly confessed to his crime, it would show that he still had some conscience. However, he pushed all blame onto Lu Xia. It was clear that Xiang Nan was immoral since he ruthlessly severed ties and blamed Lu Xia for everything.
Huo Xiang put away his phone before he cleaned up and headed downstairs.
Everyone was in the dining room having breakfast.
Huo Xiang walked over and sat down.
He was preoccupied with the events that had transpired on Weibo and seemed particularly distracted during breakfast. He tried to pick up a bun twice but dropped it on the table.
Huo Yao picked up the soya bean milk and took a sip before looking sideways at him. “Brother Xiang?”
Huo Xiang was jolted into attention when he heard his little sister’s voice. He gathered his thoughts and hurriedly nodded. “Yes, Yao?”
“Look at how distracted you are,” said Huo Yao nonchalantly.
Huo Xiang squeezed his chopsticks with his hand. He looked up at his parents as they sat across them. It did not seem like the right time to talk about Lu Xia since they were in front of them, so he shook his head and said, “I didn’t sleep well.”
